Pink is a decision the rest of the room has to live with, and polyester is what this one is made of. The Hastings 1 Seater Fold-Out Sofa Bed usually ends up in a first bedroom, or in the small room at the front that has no other job.

It stands on legs, and it keeps standing on them: 17cm of clear floor under the frame as a chair, and not a centimetre less once it is folded out flat into a bed. That settles two ordinary things — whether a vacuum head goes under it without the whole thing being moved first, and whether whoever sleeps there wakes up on the floor or above it.

If the bed is only there for a night that may never come, the Olivia Velvet Armchair with Ottoman - Pink is the same colour with no mechanism inside it, and a footstool instead.
